Lozano files impeach rap vs. Aquino

Lawyer Oliver Lozano on Thursday filed an impeachment complaint against President Benigno Aquino 3rd over releases from the Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP).

In the two-page complaint he filed before the Office of the Ombudsman, Lozano said Aquino had admitted appropriating the P72-billion DAP “without due appropriation from Congress” which has the sole power of the purse.

Lozano added that a portion of the DAP was used to bribe lawmakers who impeached former Supreme Court chief justice Renato Corona.

”The Ombudsman should investigate this alleged culpable violation of the Constitution that is prejudicial to the government employees in particular and the people in general,” Lozano said.

He said the Ombudsman “may be swayed” by his impeachment complaint as it had in the case of former president and now Rep. Gloria Arroyo of Pampanga province.

Lozano jumped the gun on the Volunteer Against Crime and Corruption (VACC) which is also preparing its impeachment complaint against the President.

Dante Jimenez, VACC founding chairman, said on Thursday Aquino may enjoy the support of the majority of members of the Senate and House of Representatives but it will not stop the filing of an impeachment complaint against him.

Jimenez said volunteer lawyers of the organization are preparing the compliant, and some lawmakers pledged to back it in the House.

He said Aquino violated the Constitution and committed grave abuse of discretion when he allowed the release of public funds through the Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) which was not sanctioned by Congress.

It is obvious that this DAP issue is a deliberate tactic to sway people away from the real issue, the pork barrel scam and the real culprits, the biggest plunders, JPE, jinggoy, Revilla, and watch out for part 1,2,3…..Even cohorts and supporters of these plunderers throw tons & tons of mud at Aquino, it will not stick because he is not the same as them. Stealing and bribery are so engrained into their system that they mistake all forms of fund released in good faith and intention as just another opportunity for them to steal. Get rid of these people, they have a decease that is so contagious and cannot be cured. Support a president who has a real and sincere purpose for the Filipino people. Do not stop what you have started, do not waste whatever gains you achieved. May God show you the way.

The President released the funds to accelerate government projects in the country. This lawyer and the others who are barking at Pnoy should investigate on how the funds were used. Our country already has so many problems and those who want to impeach the president just want chaos in the Philippines just like the government shutdown in the US. Who will suffer? The worst nightmare would be to have Binay as the new President. This would bring the Binay family dynasty to rule the Philippines!

hey lozano, u’re a marcos loyalist/bootlicker. u’re just a nuisance. the philippines has the most honest president in decades. the reason why the economy is now booming & the foreign governments are now trusting this country.

Lawyer Oliver Lozano, are you being paid by the corrupt government officials to attack the president? The Philippines is just starting to get cleaned because of the honesty of the president…why are you so critical of him. He might have millions, billions or trillions of funds…but one thing sure… he will never use it to enrich himself but to better the country. Support your president and pray that the next president will be as honest and sincere as PiNoy…

Filing an Impeachment complaint against the President may not be practical, but the move will gain ‘political’ mileage among the citizens, particularly the Netizens, toward a people power; people knows no constitution, only retribution.

For sure this impeachment rap will not prosper PNoy has just too many shields around him that he will be untouchable. Although concerned citizens should support the move, maybe it would be a good decision to bypass this rap because it will make this crocodile legislators thieves richer because PNoy will surely bribe the Congressmen and Senate to stop the impeachment move. For sure, PNoy will use peoples tax money to bribe these thieves again.
